Has Dana White finally gone too far with his Noche UFC event changes?

UFC 306 is already a big deal even before it has started!  Dana White is already giving one update after another for the epic night at The Sphere and the fans are pumped up. While this happens, there is another news regarding the Noche UFC which was recently announced by the UFC head honcho.

The Mac Life Instagram post read, “Dana White says that, while the Sphere may be a one-and-done event, UFC Noche will live on every year moving forward.” To be more precise, Dana White said, “This will be a tent pole event every year now. How do I make the next year different and fun? Do I do it in Texas do I do it in Mexico? This shook things up it was meant to happen.”

However, there is a little problem. The fans do not seem convinced even after so much hype! Firstly, the boss has already spent almost $20 million on the event, and this was all without plans! Canelo Alvarez decided to have his match at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, on the same date, and the shift to the Sphere was a hasty plan. On top of that even though this is a boon in disguise, there is still a problem with backup for Sean O’Malley vs Merab Dvalishvili fight. There’s more! Apparently, the tickets also cost so much that the fans were disappointed, and the boss had to cut down the $3000 starting price!

The fans decided to comment on the new update and the Mexican fans were not taking this lightly.

Fans react to another new update about Noche UFC

It should be noted that the ticket prices start from $3000 and the fans expressed their disappointment about it. On top of that, they also were not happy with the lesser amount of Mexican fighters even though the event was on Mexican Independence Day. Fans said things like, “Great, “ and “Here’s the thing about Jon Jones…” in this new post and it was all sarcastic.

What’s your perspective on:

Has Dana White finally gone too far with his Noche UFC event changes?

Have an interesting take?

Another fan wrote in a snide manner, “What do I do next indeed.”  There might be a fight that features Mexico’s Alexa Grasso going one-on-one against Valentina Shevchenko, but it is not enough to make the fans happy. Meanwhile, Gilbert Burns and co. have just divulged that Dana White and the UFC have been compelled to cut ticket prices by 83% to aid sell out tickets. Fans have been updating themselves about all this. on the same note, they said, “What will u do next? How about going to Mexico you f**king prat.”

Another fan wrote, “If you gonna do a UFC noche every year just don’t put it in the sphere until there are good Mexican fighters.”  One fan pointed out that the decision was not good because the boss was only concentrating on Mexican Independence Day. He said that he would not be continuing any more UFC events at the same venue. This, according to the fans, was not a good idea, and they said, “He’s shot himself in the foot by limiting the sphere card to noche.” Another follower also pointed out, “Why the Mexican Independence Day? Is dana a Mexican or sm? Why is it abt Mexica.”
